  • Title: Commissioning: the community nurse's role.
    Author: Kaufman G.
    Journal: Nurs Stand; ; 12(45):35-7. PubMed ID: 9752140.
    Abstract:
    This article examines the proposal in the White Paper The New NHS (DoH 1997) that community nurses will be involved in commissioning health care and highlights nurses' absence from the commissioning arena in the past. The important contribution nurses can make to commissioning and their interpersonal and communication skills are considered. Factors that may constrain commissioning and strategies to overcome these are also discussed.
